Perfect Practice?
by Pat Sheridan on 05/15/15If practice makes perfect than I'm a few county miles away from perfection. The morning rounds weren't terrible but the afternoon fell apart pretty hard. It sounds like most of the players are dialing in their game so I'm hoping I can step up my shots on tournament day.
A few thoughts from today's rounds:
- The speed will change throughout the day - but to what extent I'm still stumped. Probably not a good thing.
- Back-to-back aces on this course are going to be rare.
- Remember to trust the book! It's the first time I've made one for all 18 holes so I might as well use it.
Some predictions for the tournament
- An average of 37.5 will win the tournament. While some players can definitely shoot lower than that I don't think there's enough consistency in the course to keep the scores that low for the entire tournament
- We will have a first time U.S. Open winner (sorry to some of my friends who I would really like to see win, but I think this course holds the possibilities of a first time winner)
- I will break the top 20
- I will ace my first hole {long shot but I'm feeling good}
- The lowest score for a round will be a 33
- The highest score for a round will be...well, I don't want to predict that because there's a chance I can shoot it
Official pairings for the 1st 3 rounds of the 2015 U.S. Open.
Whatever the outcomes of the tournament, I'm going to try to remember to have as much fun as I can because, as I've said before - it's minigolf! We'll try to get some media up during the week so you can see how much fun you're missing if you're not playing in these tournaments.
